CAST IP Deliverables
We want you to be successful and have no problems with our products. So we strive to deliver a complete package of high-quality materials with every core. Deliverable details vary, but generally include:
- HDL RTL source code in Verilog or VHDL, or
a post-synthesis EDIF netlist optimized for a specific FPGA or Structured ASIC device - An example chip implementation, which uses the core in a sample system
- A sophisticated, self-checking HDL Testbench that includes everything needed to test the core (Verilog versions use Verilog 2001)
- Simulation script, vectors, and expected results
- Synthesis script (ASICs) or place and route script (FPGAs)
- Comprehensive user documentation, including detailed specifications, a verification guide, and a system integration guide
Additional design aids are available for many cores (some are extra-cost options) including:
- Bit-accurate simulation models (BAMs)
- Configuration wizards
- Reference design boards
